Sorry, I don’t think I’ve been clear enough here. They go from the tub into a separate tub where I keep the calcium powder. Then I give them a little shake once I’ve captured enough and feed them from the calcium tub into the Viv, if that makes sense.

So empty them into the bath. Have a separate tub with the calcium powder. Catch how maby I need . Into the tub with the calcium. And catch the rest into their original tub. But whe I open it to out one on 100 will jump out 😅

You need a cricket pen, keeps them locked up and enables you to get a few out at a time.

Have you got some good tweezers Grin

PP is right that cricket pens make it easier but I do find they get a bit smelly after a while.

I open the tub slightly put in my tweezers to get them one at a time (and sometimes they escape and have to chase them round the bath) and then put them into the pot with the calcium powder. But if you only open the original tub a little bit you shouldn’t get too many of them round the bath. Grin

So they can't jump out of the bath?

Once you get used to handling them, you may not need it, but it was good advice to me when I first got my beardie
